Summary

  • Threat hunting platform Trellix has discovered a newly developed information stealer written in the programming language Rust, which has been named Myth Stealer.
  • The malware has been marketed on Telegram since December 2024 and is specifically targeted at games.
  • It offers advanced features for gamers, enabling cybercriminals to gain unauthorised access to sensitive data contained within Gecko and Chromium-based browsers, including passwords and autocomplete data.
  • The stealer is offered on a subscription basis, costing either weekly or monthly, and can be bought using cryptocurrency or Razer Gold microtransactions.
  • Following the shutdown of its initial Telegram channel, the group behind the malware created a new one to share updates and new Rust code versions, allowing users to integrate the latest builds into the malware.
